Fall activities...

Yesterday H helped Daddy put together the new composter, so that we can still compost throughout the winter, reduce our trash and provide good nutrients for our gardens (someday, maybe...)  :)

 And today we went with H's friend R and family to pick apples at Crooked Run Orchard in Purcellville...

Daddy has a handy apple picking device for getting the higher apples...

 Daddy gets a smooch...

C patiently rides with mommy while they pick apples, though he didn't like the long car ride at all...

R has quite the throwing arm, what you don't see in this picture is his grandma off to the left dodging projectile apples...

And finally, two kids really can be totally different, H received many lovely toys (like this teether) as gifts, but hardly played with them at all.  C loves them though so they are finally getting some use now, I guess babies do like toys, go figure!  :)
